"An ideologue with a characteristic penchant for pushing boundaries, the author broadens the body of knowledge by proposing an audacious new communication approach, better known as the Channel-Factor Model.
"The book is a compelling narrative, a scholar’s guide and companion on the various political communication themes it interprets. It is difficult to put down this work once you are drawn by its alluring and free-flowing prose and incisive analysis."

"The universe of this new book is intriguing. Ibietan uses the 2015 presidential election in Nigeria as context to determine the extent of the “digital effect” – how social media communication influenced a cocktail of five electoral voting behaviour; the social and demographic correlations; comparative social media networks with respect to effectiveness of influence; motivation of social media influencers; and stimulus response likely to enhance the quality of electoral democracy, especially in terms of mobilising citizens for political participation, particularly to vote. This is a task that’s becoming increasingly challenging, despite the fact that democracy contributes to good governance, social growth and development."
